Synopsis: Before "Alias" ever hit the airwaves, the creators of Fox Network's hit TV series "24" had already reinvented the modern day spy drama with "La Femme Nikita." Based on the internationally-acclaimed Luc Benson flim, "La Femme Nikita" burst onto the scene as the highest-rated drama on basic cable, and put USA Network on the map as a home for edgy TV series like "Monk" and "The Dead Zone." "Inside Section One: Creating and Producing TV's La Femme Nikita" take readers on the series' six-year journey from art-house action movie to hit TV drama, then breaks down the production process in a uniquely informative and entertaining way. Much more than a "viewers' guide," Inside Section One is a comprehensive exploration of the development and production of a single TV series, using "La Femme Nikita" as a case study. Combinding extremely candid and often humorous interviews with over 60 members of the cast, crew, studio and network, along with 275 photos and illustrations, Inside Section One demystifies the inner workings of a TV series by detailing the production and people skills necessary to succeed in a demanding creative environment. In addition, Inside Section One explores each of La Femme Nikita's 96 episodes in depth, from the development of each script to the production challenges that the cast and crew faced every week. And all this, told by someone who was there on the inside during all five seasons of the series! Whether you're a student pursuing a career in TV production, a long-time fan of La Femme Nikita, or someone fascinated by what takes place behind the camera, Inside Section One is the one book you must have in your library.
